"Haha, what are you thinking about, Brother Yan Xiao? You can't afford to be distracted during a battle!"
Noticing the look in Xiao Yan's eyes, Luo Jin laughed loudly, pulling Xiao Yan back to reality as he was contemplating whether to try out a combo attack.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan laughed heartily, knowing that Luo Jin would Heavenly Severing. So, he could go all out and see what tremendous benefits entering the realm of intent would bring Xiao Yan!
"Haha, very well, since that's the case, Brother Luo Jin, please bring it on! I also want to see just how powerful this Dou Technique I've just mastered really is!"
In response to Luo Jin's reminder, Xiao Yan laughed heartily. With a flick of his wrist, the imposing black giant ruler spun nimbly in Xiao Yan palm like a spear. Finally, with a slight exertion of force, Xiao Yan easily planted the giant ruler diagonally into a crack in the ground.
Judging from his appearance, it did seem somewhat defiant, but Luo Jin became even more excited about it. At the same time, he dared not be careless. Judging from Xiao Yan's move just now, he knew that if he didn't use his truly powerful methods, he would not be able to defeat Xiao Yan in Dou Technique.
Since that's the case...
"Haha, Brother Yan Xiao, I'm coming!"
With a loud laugh, a beam of Dou Qi shot out from Luo Jin's eyes, hurtling towards Xiao Yan.
In response, Xiao Yan laughed heartily once again, took a half step back, brought his right hand to his waist, and spread his palm flat. His Dou Qi, like flames, surged out and covered the surface of his palm.
" Yellow Springs Palm!"
With his eyes fixed on the incoming beam of Dou Qi, Xiao Yan's power in his palm became even more concentrated. The moment the beam of Dou Qi struck, his robust figure suddenly surged forward, and he met the beam of light head-on with a palm strike.
"Bang!"
But the next moment, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed. The imposing pillar of Dou Qi was instantly shattered by his Yellow Springs Palm.
This seemingly imposing pillar of Dou Qi was actually just a decoy.
"Haha, Brother Yan Xiao, you're over here!"
In the instant Xiao Yan paused, Luo Jin's laughter came from the side of Xiao Yan's body. Judging from his tone, Luo Jin was also quite satisfied with his move.
Without hesitation, Luo Jin uttered the words and simultaneously unleashed a palm strike towards Xiao Yan.
Despite his surprise, Xiao Yan was a seasoned veteran of many battles and showed no fear. His body suddenly trembled, and all his strength was concentrated on his left shoulder, which was closer to Luo Jin. His Dou Qi surged, and with a low shout in his heart, he met Luo Jin's palm with his left shoulder without dodging or avoiding it.
" Eight Extremes Collapse!"
As Xiao Yan's first Xuan Class Dou Technique, Eight Extremes Collapse, although not of high rank, is extremely domineering. After so many years of cultivation, Xiao Yan has become very adept at controlling Eight Extremes Collapse. Now that Xiao Yan is using it again, as long as he wants, he can freely unleash Eight Extremes Collapse from any part of his body!
Moreover, with Xiao Yan's current strength, if he were to unleash the Eight Extremes Collapse again, its power would be no less than that of Heaven Class Dou Technique. Yao Lao had told Xiao Yan before that if the Eight Extremes Collapse were cultivated to its peak, it could be comparable to Di Class Dou Technique. But now, Xiao Yan has crushed this peak with his absolute strength, allowing the Eight Extremes Collapse to successfully enter a new level.
Who knows, with Xiao Yan's repeated immersion, perhaps one day he will be able to upgrade the Xiao Yan Eight Extremes Collapse technique in his hands again, and even enter the true Earth Rank or Heaven Class Dou Technique!
"Boom!"
The two touched, but Xiao Yan's clothes were as hard as steel. Luo Jin looked at Xiao Yan in astonishment. When did shoulders become a tool for Dou Technique?
The Ginseng Spirit Clan standing on the sidelines were equally astonished. These Ginseng Spirit Clan, whose strength had reached the level of Half-Emperor or higher, were also surprised by Xiao Yan's actions. As fellow cultivators, they had never known that one could use these parts of the body to perform Dou Technique.
"This... this is unbelievable! The shoulder can actually unleash Dou Technique?! How is this possible?!"
"Exactly! How is this possible? I don't recall ever hearing of a method for releasing Dou Technique like this before!"
Shocked and incredulous remarks echoed around the perimeter of this space.
When those words reached Elder Luo's ears, he couldn't help but chuckle. He laughed at the ignorance of those who spoke, their weakness and the seclusion of their race, which made them know less and less about the control of their power. If things continued like this, the Ginseng Spirit Clan Ginseng Spirit Clan would perish on its own before outsiders could come to destroy it.
"Hmph! Dou Technique are merely a way for cultivators to release their own power. The reason most cultivators inject their battle Dou Qi or Origin Qi into their limbs or even weapons is simply because they are accustomed to that fighting style. But Dou Technique are ultimately just Dou Technique. As long as a person is willing, where they release it is not important. What matters is the degree of mastery the user has over the Dou Technique!"
After a cold laugh, Elder Luo's explanation silenced the disbelieving Ginseng Spirit Clan. Here, apart from the clan leader Qing Mu, Elder Luo was the most authoritative person, and his words were not to be questioned. This was also Qing Mu's instruction.
After the two equally powerful Dou Technique clashed for several minutes, Xiao Yan's black clothes, which had become as hard as steel, were the first to tear open with a seam resembling an explosion. In comparison, Luo Jin's Dou Technique was indeed superior, so it's no wonder that happened.
Upon Luo Jin couldn't help but smile, but when he looked at Xiao Yan opposite him, he found that Xiao Yan was also looking at him with a smile.
Startled, Luo Jin sensed something was amiss. But as he focused his gaze, Xiao Yan suddenly let out a thunderous roar, his body trembling violently. The immense force sent Luo Jin staggering back several steps. At the same time, Xiao Yan roared:
" Eight Extremes Collapse! Explode!"
With a sharp shout, Luo Jin's expression changed instantly. The eight layers of hidden energy from the Eight Extremes Collapse had been so skillfully controlled by Xiao Yan that he hadn't been able to detect it in time. Now that the hidden energy had already entered his body, trying to break it now would likely lead to another chaotic struggle.
While Luo Jin was busy breaking through the eight layers of hidden energy within his body, Xiao Yan laughed loudly and unceremoniously swung the black Heavy Xuan Ruler beside him. At the same time as Luo Jin was breaking through the hidden energy within his body, he used the massive ruler to slam it down hard on Luo Jin.
The members of the Ginseng Spirit Clan outside the arena also wore expressions of utter exhilaration, their eyes glued to Xiao Yan as he fiercely swung the giant ruler in his hand.
If Xiao Yan had added his Dou Technique to that foot, the power he unleashed would have been enough to seriously injure Luo Jin. However, Xiao Yan did this simply for the sake of gratification. He simply used brute force to send Luo Jin flying. Since the latter's physical body would not suffer any fatal damage, he would at most suffer some physical pain.
"Brother Luo Jin?"
"Um?"
Having just broken free from the terrifying internal energy, Luo Jin hadn't even recovered when Xiao Yan's light laughter drifted over, causing Luo Jin to reflexively look up and give a soft "hmm."
But at that moment, Xiao Yan, with a wicked grin on his face, thrust his terrifying black giant ruler directly at Luo Jin's handsome face.
A chill ran down Luo Jin's spine, and he snapped back to reality, but it was too late.
"Uh... I'm done for..."
Upon seeing the massive black ruler, Luo Jin, knowing there was no way to avoid it, sighed helplessly.
